Donald Trump Trademarks

Trump Trademarks

Donald Trump’s first U.S. trademark application was filed in 1985 for TRUMP’S CASTLE for “casino services” and “hotel services.” This application never matured to registration. His first U.S. trademark registration was issued in 1987 for CASTLE for “casino services,” which he let expire in 1993. Trump’s oldest active mark (still being used today) is CENTRAL PARK for “bus terminal and automobile parking garage services.” Better yet, he also owns FIFTH AVENUE. His registration for FIFTH AVENUE was issued in 1993 for “casino services.” Read on, as we explore the vast world of Donald Trump Trademarks.

Donald Trump Trademark Ownership

Donald Trump is or was listed owner for 318 trademarks in the U.S. database. Trademarks are typically owned by corporations, which makes them hard to track if you are trying to learn whether an individual is tied to a trademark. However, it seems in Donald Trump’s case, he likes to apply for the marks as individual owner, only later to assign them to a corporation.

As of late, it seems he has changed his ways, and now files in corporation’s names. For example, TRUMP HOME and Design was filed March 3, 2016 for various articles of clothing in the name of DTTM OPERATIONS LLC. In addition, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN was filed by DONALD J. TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT, INC. His current trademark attorney is Patrice Jean of Hughes Hubbard of New York.

Nonetheless, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) records make it easy to find which ones were initially applied for in his name. Lets dive in.
